No home remedies, go for radiofrequency ablation or excision

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
There are no home remedies to treat skin tags.
Wart remover can be used but their is always a chance of irritant contact dermatitis to it.
It is better you consult a dermatologist and get them removed by either radiofrequency ablation or snip excision.
